If you love our first yurt "The Yurt Alpine Retreat" you will love this yurt too. It is on the same mountain ridge with similar views to the other yurt.
You can experience some of the best viws in Victoria right here. We are situated in the Victorian High Country on a 345-hectare working cattle and sheep farm surrounded by natural bushland perched on top of a mountain in one of Victorias best wine-producing regions.
After driving up a steep dirt track through natural bushland teeming with kangaroos, wombats, rabbits and deer, you will burst onto a plateau with amazing views. Fantastic panoramic walks or explore the adjoining bushland.
In the morning you will hear the sounds of many birds including beautiful King Parrots, black cockatoos, kookaburras or you might see a family of eagles hovering overhead or a white deer if you are really lucky. At sunset you can see kangaroos, wallabies, wombats etc.
In the evening enjoy the sounds of silence while drinking some local wine, there is good mobile coverage at the yurt but limited access in other parts of the property.
In the evening you can sit by the campfire until its time for bed, the stars are unbelievable you will be able to see them through the glass dome of the beautifully furnished yurt from your very comfortable bed. Lots of wineries to visit, Lake William Hovell and Paradise Falls, Powers Lookout are all nearby.

Additional Information
YURT DETAILS
The yurt is situated 20 minutes from wineries, no supermarkets for 40 km. though so come prepared.
There are a general store and a pub 15 mins away though.
The yurt itself is beautiful and unique, cosy in winter with the Mongolian wood stove for heating. The yurt has a 5cm thick pure wool felt cover underneath two layers of canvas which keeps it warm in winter and cool in summer.
There is a gas BBQ and a small camp stove inside the yurt. You can cook on the open fire but not in summer using the cast iron pot. There is a large battery operated fan for the summer months. There is a great outdoor wood heated bath with great views of the mountains.
You will find most things you need including linen, cutlery crockery and cooking utensils. There is gas hot water in the rustic shower which has great views of the mountains. There are also flushing toilets.
No public transport though.
There are many tourist attractions in the area, including Paradise Falls and Powers lookout or the Ned Kelly Trail at Glenrowan and lots of wineries.
When you reach Evans Lane, just come straight up the lane don't turn anywhere until you come to a gateway with a sign saying the yurt alpine retreat on the left and a red letterbox on the right our driveway is immediately past the sheds on the right. If you come up to the house I can take you up to the yurt and explain how things work.
